While at the x-games arena in Skate I always tried to see how horrific of an injury i could create after taking off and landing in the halfpipe

There was a glitch in Guild Wars 2 that my friend was messing around with. There's a potion that turns you into a mole-man. Turns out the animations for the mole man were kinda messed up so he looked like he was sliding or skating whenever he walked. We turned on some Tony Hawk Pro Skater music and were grinding along railings and "skating" up and down bridges and half-pipe-looking piles of wood.
I don't own the game, so I'm not sure if it still works, but it'd be fun to put together a full skating party.

Long-jump straight into wall-jump straight into ground-pounding an enemy in Mario 64.
That's pretty amazing. Before I entered the thread, just based upon the title I was thinking of how my brother and I stayed up until about 4 in the morning playing "tag" on and around the island on Drake Lake Christmas night '96.

My friend and I discovered a few hidden stunt areas in SF Rush for the N64. After that we never did proper races again. Just stunting like bastards.

I started playing Oblivion and Skyrim like Sims games. At that point, I usually get rid of them because they consume my life. Plus, the gameplay was getting more awful the more I played.
Long-jumping around small planetoid in Galaxy, going for maximum number of rotations before touch down.

Safe Maniac Driver - GTA games
Ever since the mid-way point in GTA3 I have been following these rules strictly. I find the games very enjoyable with these restrictions in place.
- You *must* drive at max speeds unless the game forces you to drive slowly (e.g. "Tailing" missions)
- Under no circumstances can you injure a civilian. Crash into a wall (totalling your car) if you must. Injuring a pedestrian warrants a save reload. This is a HARD rule. No breaking under any circumstances. Please note that bumping into a car that runs over a pedestrian counts. Almost hitting a car that swerves into a pedestrian does not.
- No crashing into other cars unless it is a glancing blow or a minor fender bender. Soft rule, no save reload needed if you fail this one so long as the other driver and nearby civilians are safe
- Cops and enemies are always exempt.

Operation Flash Poin was great game with realy crap physics model for vechicles. So we used to play Football with car as ball and players in Tanks shooting the car around. We also tried volleyball with shilkas but it was hard to keep the car going in the air whitout hitting the other players, but it was still fun. .

Did similar experiments in Brawl. Form teams where one person holds the nunchuk while one person holds the wiimote. You can potentially play with up to 8 players.
Alternatively if you're playing with a large group, have one person control using only the Bongos. You can't even hardly move, but master the timing and you can get a few KOs in. I think I managed to win as Samus once.
Ha, I would do something like that with the invisibility cheat on.
In both Melee and Brawl, me and my friends would start from the first character and make are way down, whenever you lost, you moved to the next character, first one to go through them all lost. Lol
I had so many variants of this stuff in GTA:SA. My two favorites would be in the desert area, getting on top of a car(or preferably a truck bed) and shooting wildly at other cars/people and have the driver freak out, and have a police chase like this. I've had some amazingly long chases doing this, and was so upset that IV ruined it completely.
The other was causing chaos near mount chilliad until I had 4 stars and taking it up the mountain, the police cars were so big they always fell right off, it was hilarious.

My cousin had a Panasonic 3D0 and this old racing game called ... wait for it ... "The Need for Speed." (yes, that one). Anyway, it had horrible, awesome physics and we would have contests to see who could do the most-proper cartwheels with the cars. So much fun.

This was so prevalent they might as well have made an actual mini-game of it.
Left 4 Dead Deathmatch
Start on a Finale Level before summoning the horde. Put difficulty on expert (or maybe advanced). Proceed to try and kill each other, utilizing any items you come across. A fun tactic is to try to use up all the first aid kits and pills before anyone else.

Not really much of an invention, but we played it all the damn time.
Goldeneye - Play 2v2 Teams Golden Gun.
The Golden Gun always spawns in a single room, so we would all obviously rush to the GG room and try to be the first team to take over the room and control it. Then it was all about defending the room from the other team to stop them getting the GG.
It was so much fun running in with two people blasting AK47's and causing mayhem trying to take down the people with the GG's, then if somebody on the other team managed to nab a GG during a spawn it was a hectic shootout with both teams trying to get the one shot kill to take over the room again.
Was so much fun, and when certain friends come round we can still play this game/mode for hours and have a blast.

Count the civilians you could run over with a single car in gta 3. No trucks that's cheating. No waiting for stars to go away.

I managed to find the old video, and re-uploaded it. So much fun, so many hours well wasted. I'm posting on my phone so I hope it's viewable on pc. Rag doll physics FTW!

Hide-and-seek in Mario Kart 64. We'd use the bottom screen to hide one character, put some cardboard over it and the other person used the top screen to find the other.
Super Smash Bros (N64), "The Bases".
Me and my brother would both play as Fox, and each half of the ship's upper section would be our respective bases. Looking back on it, it was sort of RPG-ish.
- You couldn't trespass the line that divided the "bases", so it'd be relying on projectile attacks and items to hurt the opponent. If you trespassed the line, the owner of the base would give ya one physical attack to get ya out.
- Whatever item fell on your zone, was yours. If it fell right on the line, first come first serve.
- The guy whose half of the ship included the lower section could go there to retrieve items, but while he was down there, the other could run all over the upper section if he pleased; however, if he came back and the other guy was still on his side, he was within his right to kick him out.
- It'd get very fun when one of us used Fox' B attack, then we'd both enter his Down B, thus returning the same beam between us over and over. The trick was NOT to keep on pushing the button, instead triggering the reflector just before the beam hit you. Eventually, one of the reflectors would break, and did I mention that when your opponent was asleep/paralyzed, you were on your right to go pick his items and kick his ass once? Sometimes, one of us would miss the timing and not activate the reflector on time; if the beam had been going on long enough, this inflicted like 80% damage (and Fox would make this hilarious stunned animation).
I miss playing that. It could only be played on the N64 original; latter installments changed both the size of the ship and Fox's beams' mechanics, and it just couldn't be replicated anymore.
Brawl's create-a-level was perfect for this. Me and my brother would each create our own personalized bases, and see how long it would take for one of us to break the peace.
It was quite strategic; building a base you couldn't easily throw a smart bomb into, be shot from etc...
Few friends played an absurd amount of RE: Outbreak one summer. One of the makeshift games we made was in the final level. We advance deep enough into the story to unlock most of the map. Then we would take a couple of minutes to all run in different directions and then proceed to try and murder each other/try to survive whatever creatures were left. That's right, we played deathmatch with crappy RE: Outbreak manual aiming. It was awesome though.

If I die I delete my character.
We tried to do a cannonball run type of thing in OFP. Granted we would break our legs the moment our vehicles hit any sort of bump, shrubbery or eachother that didnt last too long lol.

My man! Someone knows how much fun was in that game.
Comrade Papodov watch in Timesplitters: Future Perfect
My friends and I would turn everyone invisible, set the game to elimination (five lives) and hunt eachother with sniper rifles in Siberia. The only bot (usually) was Comrade Papodov, who would wander around the map invisibly as we tried to hunt him down.
Somehow this was an amazing time.

"The Matrix" custom games in Perfect Dark.
Up to four players deathmatch, and possibly only one life. The only weapons are shotguns and combat boosts (puts game into slow motion temporarily).
When you engage an enemy, use the combat boost, putting everything in slow motion.
Cue epic slow-mo strafing and near-miss targeting as you try to beat your opponent's cursor at close range.
Because of the high damage, short range and long reload times of the shotgun, it became a super tense game of risk and reward, because missing your shot could be fatal. You had to go in close so you could do enough damage in a single shot to kill.
The strategy was to bait your opponent into shooting, giving you a small window to try and nail your own shot. If you missed, you had to "defend" by dodging until you could shoot again. Gave the battles a great ebb and flow.

Red Dead Redemption: when I got bored doing quests, I would go to the MacFarland Ranch and see how many corpses I could create in an hour. Then I would hogtie the next person to ride through and leave them in the middle of all the dead bodies and skinned horses and then leave to do the next story quest.
GoldenEye: when i was 12 or so, my cousin and I would cover every square inch of the bathroom in Facility with remote mines, then hit the detonate button and watch the magic happen.

Don't know if this counts, but: whenever I'm playing a Street Fighter game where it ends up with me playing Ryu against Sagat, I have to finish him with a dragon punch.
Hahaha, this is just pure insanity. You killed me with the chunk racing. Seriously, what other game would let you do this, and what other medium even has the possibility? Gotta love games and imagination.
This sounds friggin amazing.

In Mercenaries on the Xbox I would place a bunch of C4 around and under cars and then try and blow them up into choppers overhead.
Not really a game, but in Just Cause 2, I'd just tumble down whatever mountain I could find just for the hell of it. I just loved how Rico silently tumbled down the hill. No grunts of pain, no nothing.

In Gran Turismo 2, we were doing Mini Cooper races. There was a track with a big turn around some sort of church. And we sucked at that game. So the challenge was to take that turn without hitting the walls.

This is brilliant
Me and a friend usually do flip competitions in Trials. The goal being to perform the highest number of back/frontflips on a track without failing more than 3 times or staying in one spot to do them. Going back and forth with this can be great fun and it's amazing just how many you can do in even the simpler tracks.
My friend and I used to do that first one. It's like a video game version of No Country For Old Men.
Another one we made up is based on The Terminator. One player is John Conner - He can't use weapons and the only vehicle he's allowed to use is a scooter. The other player is the terminator - he can use any vehicle, but the only weapon he can use is a rocket launcher. It's incredibly intense.
